Have only tried 50 baud – but the beacon ran for over an hour without errors. The receiving setup was done on a Windows 7 computer:
- Funcube (software defined radio)
- FCHID (software to tune the Funcube)
- Spectraview (demodulate signal from Funcube to SSB)
- FLDigi (decode RTTY using custom setup)
The bandwidth of the RTTY signal was close to 900 instead of something more reasonable like 50. This can be adjusted by trying various resistor values in the voltage divider circuit.
Next steps include building antennas and increasing the baud rate.
